- The 2020 presidential campaign of John Delaney, the former U.S. representative who represented Maryland's 6th congressional district from 2013 to 2019, was announced to the public on July 28, 2017. Delaney was the first prominent Democrat to announce a campaign for the 2020 U.S. presidential election, far earlier than other candidates. If elected, Delaney would have been the first Marylander to serve as President of the United States, and the second Catholic, after John F Kennedy. Delaney promotes himself as a centrist, and a moderate, and believes that the Democratic Party needs to be a big tent to bridge partisan and national divisions. He harshly criticized Donald Trump for being divisive among other issues. From January 25, 2020, Delaney did not reach greater than 2% in a national poll. Delaney suspended his campaign on January 31, 2020, after making an announcement on social media. (en)
